Hi,
Yes, you need to write all the join conditions with in the source qualifier and you can write IN conditions as well. Once you are done with the sql query, first execute it manually at sql prompt and if it works perfectly then it will work in the informatica as well.
Ex:
Select a.ename,b.deptname from emp a, dept b
where a.deptno=b.deptno
and a.deptno in (20,30,40);
In your case you need to write all the 9 tables join conditions and in the select list write all the columns you need in order to populate them in target table.
